Severna Park Criminal Defense Lawyers

Determined Criminal Defense Attorneys Fighting for Clients' Rights in Severna Park, MD

Being at the center of a criminal investigation can leave you worried about your future and how your family will be affected. Misdemeanor or felony charges and convictions can follow you throughout your life, limiting your opportunities for employment, borrowing, and housing. Whether you have been falsely accused or made an unfortunate mistake, you need an experienced criminal defense lawyer to protect your rights.

At Henley & Henley, Attorneys at Law, our attorneys have over 50 years of combined experience in which we have fought aggressively for the best interests of clients throughout Maryland. We have learned a lot during that time, and we will use our considerable knowledge and deep understanding of the applicable laws to develop the best possible defense on your behalf.

In Criminal Matters, Experience Matters

Any case can involve challenges. Would you prefer to work with a lawyer who is uncertain when a challenge emerges or one who knows how to anticipate and identify potential complications and deal with them effectively before they become major obstacles? First-hand knowledge gained through experience goes deeper than a vague understanding learned from textbooks or observation. Our decades of legal practice have given us the tools we need to defend you effectively, regardless of what challenges may arise.

Severna Park, Maryland Criminal Charges

Once investigators narrow their focus to a specific suspect, they often ignore evidence that points to another person. Partnering with a competent attorney can help you protect your rights and promote your best interests in cases involving:

If your case includes felony or misdemeanor charges not included in this list, we can help with those too. Our goal is to reach the best possible outcome for your case.

Achieving Your Goals When Defending Against Criminal Charges

Having your charges dropped or never filed in the first place is the ideal outcome for your case, but that is not always possible. Instead, reduced charges, a shorter sentence, or participation in a diversion program could be the best possible resolution. Because of our extensive experience, we know how prosecutors and judges think, and we can customize your defense strategy around this knowledge. We will carefully build a profile highlighting you as an entire person rather than a suspected criminal. We can also:

  • Negotiate with prosecutors
  • Argue against the validity of your arrest and the evidence against you
  • Present alternative explanations for the alleged crime

Everything we do on your behalf is part of a comprehensive strategy that is designed to produce the best possible results.
